SkyWatch ~ Mt. Remarkable Sunset

Back in the circuit again!

Our first overnight stop was in Melrose, at the foot of

Mt.Remarkable where we climbed part way up the mountain

and just caught the tail end of the sunset.

Naturally I kept on shooting as I huffed and puffed ever upward.

Stopping to turn around and enjoy the moon in the blue of

the eastern sky (in case you can't see it, it is the tiny white spot

in the upper middle of the sky)

and trudging on to wonder at the whirling clouds overhead.

To end the day the full drama emerged and we just managed

to stumble down again before it was pitch dark.

All photos enlarge of course.

Thank you to the splendid SkyWatch Team for their tenacity

in keeping this great meme going.
